SEC Rant Power Ranking Voting Results - Pre-Season

College football is finally back! Most of us survived the off-season so cheers to that. 
Here are the results of the Pre-season Power Rankings going into Week 1! Our voters also made predictions for week 1 much like they did last year, but I wasn't able to recreate that document in time. I will keep that record and add it to week 2's results though.
Now, for the alters on here still pretending to be new posters, I'll explain how this chart works.
A logo represents that team's rank. Alabama is #1, Georgia is #4, Arky is #8, etc.
The multiple lines show where votes were placed for a team and the frequency of that rank/vote. Alabama received 100% of its votes for the #1 rank while Auburn had 55% of its votes for #2, 29% for #3, 3% for #4 and so on...
Here ya go! Let me know if I need to go with gray for Mississippi State

I like it. How many total voters?

Mizzou too high

Takeaways from the preseason voting results:
Seems to be kind of toss up between Auburn, LSU, Georgia, and Florida for 2-5. The bottom is dominated by Vandy, Mizzou, and Ole Miss (shoutout to whomever gave Vandy a #4 vote, I'd love to see that happen). And the rest are pretty well spread out in between those two groups.
Shaping up to be a fun football season with a lot of questions to be answered.

It's a preseason poll. Save your melting for a few weeks.

Mizzou last? Obviously, posters haven't heard that we've got new helmets.

I wouldn't get too hot and bothered if I were you, haven't you heard? The East is DOWN

Not hot and bothered at all. Besides new helmets, we've had some "very good fall practices." And seniors are "showing good leadership." And we expect some players to "step up this year."
And besides that, "the players are excited about the upcoming season."
You're all fricked.

Now that is funny stuff right there.

Alabama - probable loss
@Clemson - underdog
@LSU - underdog
@Arky - toss up
@aTm - toss up
Georgia - toss up
SECCG - toss up
Semi-final - underdog
NCG - underdog
Lots of opportunity for close wins.

Hey Lew,
Can we have some guest pickers each week this year? I would love to take part in some capacity.
